THE MAGICAL VIOLIN

The Enchanted Violin tells a Nepali story of a little boy named Luca who found an old violin lying in the ruins of an abandoned hut. After playing the instrument, he perceived that it possessed an ability to unleash magic and create beauty around him. As he performs for the villagers, he is approached by an elderly man who claims to know the secrets of the violin and advises him that such magic can only be used by those who are good of heart, for if abused, it shall become evil. Such is the burden which he is more than willing to shoulder as it gives him the authority to use the magic of the violin in creating happiness and healing the world while cognizant of the burden for control he possesses.
